Lead Flashing Repair or Replacement: Which Does Your Roof Need?
A local repair may be suitable for an isolated defect, while widespread splits, poor original detailing or repeated failure can make partial or complete renewal the more reliable option.
When a Targeted Lead Repair May Be Suitable
- The defect is localised and the surrounding lead remains serviceable
- The existing detail has enough sound material for a compatible repair
- The underlying support, chase and adjoining roof covering are in suitable condition
- The repair will not lock the sheet and prevent normal thermal movement
When Leadwork Replacement May Be Recommended
- Several splits, patches or distorted areas show broader deterioration
- Incorrect bay sizes, laps or fixings are contributing to repeat failure
- The substrate, outlet or connected roof detail also needs rebuilding
- A previous temporary repair no longer provides reliable weather protection

What is roofing leadwork?
Roofing leadwork involves installing lead flashing and custom detailing to waterproof critical roof joints, chimneys, and valleys, protecting against leaks.
What is lead flashing used for on roofs?

Why is lead flashing important for roofs?

Leadwork can crack due to thermal movement, age, weather exposure, poor installation, or metal fatigue, eventually leading to leaks if not repaired.
Why is regular roof maintenance important for lead flashing?
Regular inspections and prompt repairs prevent leaks, preserve property structure, and avoid expensive water damage from deteriorated lead flashing.
